    a good win to the end of a good career, both fighters should retire after this fight.

    I would be very impresed but not shocked. Hopkins has aged much better than Jones has. I think Jones main weekness and it is a big weekness are his legs. If Hopkins was a puncher I would pick Hipkins by early stopage. However Hopkins is a lot of things but not a puncher. I think that Tarver, Johnson and Green beat Jones but Jones lost to Calzhgie. I think Hopkins is more Calghzie than he is Tarver, Johnson and Green. I think that if Jones legs don't give out on him he is still a better boxer than Hopkins and is capple of beating him.

    That would make me very happy. RJJ deserves to go out like a champion and if he could be the first man to KO/TKO BHOP that would make my day and add to his already excellent career.

    I'd be surprised. It would have to go down as a great win for RJJ and a nice way to end his career.

    Shocked.

    Jones fall from the top has been at a high gradient. He is pretty much finished as it is.

    I'd say that Hopkins got shot overnight, no way he's losing if he still got some left.

    Great way to end his career for Jones. There would be no question as to who the better fighter was.
